For Dave Canales, it's about more than just energy


Recommended Posts

I can't imagine what kind of toxic work place the Rhule era was. Glad that's behind the team now. Canales seems refreshing compared to some of the last coaching staff that they had to deal with. I want to be a little optimistic but I'm holding off until I see how camp plays out. Fool me once.....

Lots of subtle Rhule bashing in that piece. Canales does sound like the real deal and seems to have won over the players. You have to believe that it will eventually translate to a winning program.

But during one rep in practice this spring, one offensive player casually chunked it back in the general vicinity of the huddle, where running back Chuba Hubbard caught it and quickly handed it to Corbett.

Canales blew the whistle. He calmly explained to the entire team that's not what he wanted to see. Then he had them re-rack the play and do it again. No yelling and screaming. Teaching point, emphasized, next rep.

The ball went back to Corbett for the rest of the period. And there's a larger lesson there.

Flashback to touching the DBO sign for a false start and making the entire team run laps when the ball was extended over the goal line in practice.

Megalomaniac, small dick energy from Rhule his entire time here.

a little optimism, positive attitude, and getting buy-in from your co-workers/teammates goes a long way to building successful outcomes.

Not just in sports

Given the last six years the life has been sucked out of this team, its very welcomed. I just hate how it can be very hard to tell if its real, most times it feels faked.

Bottom line, he is gonna have to do some tangible good stuff to back it up. If he has the goods that attitude would be a plus.

    • i think i go in the opposite direction of most. my ideal retirement is living in some old downtown area in a flat above some shop or something.  life out in the country was just something i got real tired of. My kids actually miss some of living out there, which i understand. that was where they grew up for the most part. 40 acres with a 2.5 acre pond. it was beautiful, but also way too much (and too expensive) for me to keep up with. 
    • FLASHBACK: I remember back when ESPN was just starting--he was their anchor.  They used to show stuff like Rodeo and field hockey--I remember laughing when he went to a commercial mocking a cycling competition in Utah (or something similar--I made that up) and I laughed.  I told my dad, "We may have us a new anchor when we get back from commercial."  When they came back from commercial, Berman was looking very serious and he said, "Any comments by me do not reflect the views of ESPN....The men and women who cycle are dedicated athletes and we are honored to shine light on their sport." (Paraphrasing).  Dad laughed hysterically. My first memory of him--and that was like 1980.
    • Might not have a team without them. Although that probably applies to the Panthers, too.
